A 40-year-old man was in custody Sunday for allegedly making false bomb threats to the Coachella Music & Arts Festival.
Cathedral City police responded at 10:40 a.m. Saturday to reports of a suspicious man at the Agua Caliente Casino in Cathedral City, department officials said.
Casino security informed police that a man driving a Tesla said he would be responsible for a bombing at the festival, police reported. Police looked up the vehicle details and identified the owner as Davis Darvish, a resident of Santa Monica.
Festival personnel and local law enforcement were notified of the alleged threat and remained on the lookout for Darvish and his vehicle.
At about noon on Saturday, Palm Springs police officers located Darvish’s vehicle in their city and detained him. Upon searching his vehicle, no weapons, explosives or bomb-making materials were found, Cathedral City police said.
Darvish was booked at the John Benoit Detention Center in Indio and was being held on #1 million bail at the Larry D Smith Correctional Facility.
Anyone with information regarding Darvish or the alleged bomb threat was asked to contact Sgt. Rick Osborne at 760-202-2448 or rosborne@cathedralcity.gov, or the Cathedral City Police Department at 760-770- 0300 or tips@cathedralcity.gov.
